THE JOURNEY BEGINS...

"It is a strange fish that is aware of water."
- Proverb

A fish that is aware of water is a strange fish: because a fish can never know what it must feel like out of water. Culture, in sociological terms, is our water. But writer-types (from rarefied authors to minor ones) like to think of themselves as existing outside of society as neutral observers.

This is one such watery illusion.
